Redhat 7.2 installation help please

[ceyjavik]

alright, first post:
my system Asus CUSL2-C
Celeron 633
384mbs pc133
Matrox G200 8meg agp
Sound Blaster Live value
Maxtor 27gig ata100 7200rpm
Lite-on cd-rom 52x

I originally had 7.0 running fine
The error I have encountered is Kernal panic (noob don't understand kernal panic)
This error occurs while attempting to partition the drive. I have tried many configurations for partitioning, letting redhat do it by default didn't work and none of my attempts worked. I was trying a 20-50meg boot part, 384-780meg swap, and the rest as /
I have also tried using ext2,ext3 doesn't matter
please help! :confused:

When are you getting the kernel panic? During the installation when you booted from the Redhat 7.2 cd?

I get the kernal panic during format, it never gets past format!

Close this case, problem solved. It was a bad piece of memory!
